Mental Health: Prioritise Mental And Heart Health: Docs At Wellness Fest |

Jaipur: Strongly promoting the commonly known idiom – ‘health is wealth’, medical experts belonging to different genres expressed their concerns and ways to adopt a healthy life.
From cardiac experts to gynaecologists, experts shared the stage at World Health and Wellness Fest being held at Jawahar Kala Kendra on Saturday where they not just spoke on keeping a healthy heart but also living a stress free life.
During one of the sessions, Dr Sanjeeb Roy, director and chairman, Cardiac Science said that timely check up is the key to avoid untimely death. “Age has got to do nothing with sudden cardiac arrests, which is commonly seen now-a-days. Our lifestyle is to be blamed for poor health. Cardiovascular diseases can be modified by avoiding drinking and smoking,” he added.
For having a healthy lifestyle, an important factor is leading a disciplined routine and Dr Amit Chakraborty, director, Neurosurgery, Rukmini Birla Hospital emphasised on self motivation. “It is very common to get depressed owing to our lifestyle and we need to work on not to feel low,” he said.
With recent incidents of many young people succumbing to cardiac arrest, Dr Budhaditya highlighted that the paradigm of heart attacks are changing. “People are having it even at a young age, we are seeing cases between the age group of 30-40 years. The majority have undetected cardiac diseases. It is very important to visit doctors timely,” he noted.
Another session was dedicated to women’s health and stress where doctors spoke on how females often grapple with mental health issues.
